"…hair damage and psychological injury or scarring from a treatment can attract a compensation claim. There is a common misconception that you can only seek a refund of the treatment costs but if you have been injured from the treatment you are also entitled to compensation for that injury."

The Consumer Claims Process
Have you or someone you care about been hurt due to a faulty product or service? You might be eligible for compensation.
Consumer rights protect individuals from injuries caused by defective goods or services through specific legislation:
- Consumer Protection Act 1987: Streamlines compensation claims for injuries from product defects.
- Sale of Goods Act 1979: Ensures goods and services meet their intended purpose.
- Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982: Mandates goods/services are provided with reasonable skill and care.
Why consider a claim? It acknowledges your injury and helps secure financial compensation for pain, lost earnings, and medical expenses. It also highlights flaws to prevent similar harm to others and enhances safety standards.
